The city Planning Commission is sweet on a developer’s $1.5 billion plan to bring 2,200 new apartments to the former Domino Sugar factory site in Williamsburg, voting unamiously today to support the controversial project.

The development team of Community Presevation Corporation and Isaac Kataan, however, agreed to slightly reduce the project’s parking and cut one of its towers by 50 feet before commissioners voted 13-0 in favor of the 11.2-acre project that would dramatically change the North Brooklyn skyline.

“The New Domino” project — which already has the backing of Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz but was snubbed earlier this year by local Community Board 1 — now goes to the City Council for final approval.

But its no lock to pass – at least without extra modifications — since Steve Levin, the local councilman, opposes it because he believes it’s too big. His political mentor, Brooklyn Democratic boss Vito Lopez, is also againt the development.

The council usually backs the wishes of the local council member on land-use issues.

“The Commission’s action supports the planning framework that balances density and open space and provides a welcoming design, attractive architecture and view corridors of the waterfront from the existing community,” he said.

“At the same time, it needs to be recognized that the extraordinary public amenities come with a significant price tag—a burden primarily to be borne through cross-subsidies from the market rate component of The New Domino. Cutting back on that component reduces the needed cross-subsidies and impairs the development’s overall economic viability.”

The mixed-use project Domino project on the Williamsburg waterfront also includes four acres of public recreation space, 274,000 square feet of retail space, and an esplanade overlooking Manhattan. It needs city approval for a zoning change to allow for residential use because the 11.2-acre footprint was not part of the 2005 neighborhood rezoning.

The project, the second-biggest in Brooklyn behind Atlantic Yards, came under fire last year over the possibility that the illuminated “Domino Sugar” sign would be lost. But the developer opted to keep it following massive opposition from residents.
